Bitdefender Blocking Utorrent

Hi, I'm having this same problem now and I noticed there was no response. Can I get some help?


I have a Sony VAIO laptop, and am running BitDefender Total Security 2013. Just installed and activated and when I restarted, and reopened my uTorrent, everything was just frozen up (aka nothing checking, nothing uploading, nothing downloading). I checked rules and uTorrent is added and is allowed. I'm not sure what's the problem... Been trying everything.


Oh For the record: Windows 7 Home Premium -- I'm only using Malware Bytes and BitDefender... I was downloading with uTorrent quite fine before BitDefender... It was really after I installed it.

    You can set your torrent client to only work on a port range. Say 50000-60000, and white list these ports on BD.

    Hi Nelliel,


    Please try to turn off the real-time protection of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and check if the issue persists:


    - right click on Malwarebytes Anti-Malware icon from the system tray


    - click on Enable Protection


    - a message window will appear > click Yes to disable.


    The Malwarebytes Anti-Malware icon in the system tray will turn Black signifying that its real-time protection is disabled.


    Feel free to post back if you need further assistance. :)
